Today in Austin, at the South Steps of the capitol building, five thousand protesters rallied on Day 1 of the 2nd special session called by Rick Perry so that his precious anti-choice legislation could be passed.
It wasn't going to be passed without a fight on the floor, and it wasn't going to be passed without suffering, again, a great deal of noise and attention.
And it wasn't, in the end, passed at all.
Republicans, you see, are smart. Yeah, that's the ticket...smart. They decided to put off a vote on these offensive bills until tomorrow - when all the protesters were not going to be there.
Good luck with that strategy.

How many of those orange shirts were paid protesters from the ad put on Craigslist in Austin?
Gotta stop drinking your own Kool-Aid, Anon. The only paid attendees got checks from the Koch Brothers.
